15 QUESTIONS FOR 15 FRIENDS

Tagged by @snake-snack-stede, thank youuuuu!

ARE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?: Apparently my mom's favorite baby doll. >.> Brigdh was an attempt to name myself after Brigid, but I made a typo (and this was way, way back in the day when you needed an invitation for social media, and I was too shy to ask for a second invite), but it kinda worked out since I'm the only Brigdh anywhere and so can always use my preferred screenname.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?: I'm not a big cryer. I think probably when I was having an extra intense depressive episode a few weeks ago.

DO YOU HAVE KIDS?: Nope!

WHAT SPORTS DO YOU PLAY/HAVE YOU PLAYED?: The only sport I've done recently is swimming. I did the general round of team sports as a kid (volleyball, basketball, t-ball, track), but none of them particularly well or even into high school.

DO YOU USE SARCASM?: Of course!

WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT PEOPLE?: Uhhhh hair color and length probably?

WHAT'S YOUR EYE COLOUR?: green/gray/blue, which is a combination that sounds cooler than it actually is, which is just a muddied mid-range color.

SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS?: Why not both???

ANY TALENTS?: Um. I can crochet, kinda.

WHERE WERE YOU BORN?: USA

WHAT ARE YOUR HOBBIES?: Fandom, obviously! Also books.

DO YOU HAVE ANY PETS?: Too many, oh nooooo. See, the thing is we recently moved to a neighborhood that apparently is notorious for its large population of street cats, and obviously we have to save them all. So there are currently seven cats living in my house. We're intending to find new homes for some of them, but as of right now: seven adorable fur goblins.

HOW TALL ARE YOU?: 5'7

FAVOURITE SUBJECT IN SCHOOL?: History!

DREAM JOB?: Okay, you know how research professors complain about having to take their turn teaching the 101-level seminar year after year? I desperately want to teach college-level intro to archaeology/history classes, but just focusing on the students and without having to do a ton of new research. Also in my dream this pays well and I don't have to deal with a lot of administration.

I tag (if you want to): @jessica-drewz, @naryrising, @petrichorca, @three--rings, @why-worry-do-it-later, @napneeders, @badgerette, @saiditallbefore, @thewalrus-said, @starberrywine, @tharacelehar, @foolishcatalyst, @likethehotsauce, @acidyellowlava, and @firstaudrina!

Buoyancy and other matters of the heart

In Hand

by Brigdh

Stede's familiar with gloves. He has a whole box of his own, of course, in all the colors and materials appropriate to a gentleman – deerskin, kid, silk; white and buff and a fabulous array of pastels. But Ed's gloves. Stede's never seen a pair like them.

Working my way through memes I was tagged in! @adickaboutspoons tagged me for this late last month.

Three Ships of All Time:

Ed/Stede (OFMD), of course. Have to start with that. THE ship of all time. Need I say more?

Mobei Jun/Shang Qinghua (SVSSS). I actually started shipping this before I read the book based on fanart and such, so I was so disappointed when it's like ... not there until the very end. 🙃 But it's so cute!

So much pressure on the third one here. I could put a couple other MXTX pairings, but I'm tempted to go with Hilson (House MD)? When I watched the show as it aired I was actually a Huddy fan, but on rewatches House/Wilson really stood out to me.

First Ever Ship:

I can never remember! I usually go with Anne Shirley/Gilbert Blythe because a) I know I did ship it early and b) lots of people I've been friends with have said that that's their first ship, but I literally have no idea if it's true. Mary Lennox/Dickon Sowerby is another contender, and may even be more likely? (Mary/Colin shippers DNI)

Last Song:

I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) by the Proclaimers. Classic.

Last Film:

Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris, the new one with Lesley Manville.

Currently Reading:

A Restless Truth by Freya Marske! I'm only a few pages into it, so I can't may much about it, but I am loving it. Very excited for the lesbians!!

Currently Watching:

Game Changer, the most recent ep. They're forcing Grant to do a Bachelor competition. It's amazing.

Currently Consuming:

Cottage pie, warmed up on the stove. It's very good! All the ingredients came from the farmer's market. Also broccoli and a really nice brownie from the local bakery.

Currently Craving:

To be able to write! I was PMSing the last few days and simply could not write anything. I finally stopped trying yesterday, but I feel like maybe I could work on the "Sweet Damsels learning to dance in the moonlight" wip now ...

Tagging:

Immortality was so fucking tedious. But this Stede Bonnet guy, he's interesting. Too bad he'll die like all the others.

The Devil's Luck

by Brigdh

Ed dismisses it as superstition when he first hears the story. Just old salts testing how gullible the youngest crew member might be. If he believes them, he'll never hear the end of it; they'll laugh at him over mermaids and sea serpents and every other sailors' myth. But he hears the same story again and again, on ship after ship, in taverns and brothels and dry docks. They say that there's a way to guarantee good luck. It's a deal with the devil, and it's available to anyone who dares – good luck for you, at the low cost of bad luck for your soulmate.
